I am not a writer. I don't often plan to write an article. I don't know much about using a computer. February 21,2004, I started making daily birthday posts on free music groups. Free. I do searches for some famous people born on the date. I don't get any money for this.
When I find biographical information, I post it to groups. When I started using wikipedia, I added links that seem to have good biographical information. Something like a wrong date, as verified in the links, I try to correct. I haven't considered my posts to be spam and I don't have a personal connection. I find information in those links.
Tell me if you don't want me editing. Delete me, if you want to. I don't know how to contact anybody there. I am really confused, now.
What is wrong with the shakin_stacks and youtube links? They provide knowledge about the person and they are not spam?

Addition
I found http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockabilly_Hall_of_Fame - http://www.rockabillyhall.com/ . Bob Timmers spent his own money starting this to promote music. I like it. I found http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/RaB-HoF/ . I started posting and reading. This is all free (FREE). On Feb.21,2004, I started posting a daily music discussion message of birthdays. The groups where I post are original rock and roll fans, but I add some others. I leave out those who are promoted on the regular distribution system and are well known in the tabloids right now. The groups are good and let me do that. The messages are supposed to be original rock and roll sound (rockabilly). I was a volunteer radio programmer June 1986 - July 1999, 13 years. I'm not that big for the birthdays, but I want to remember good music people at least once a year. I am a fan and I love it. This is my biggest message I have ever sent and it was Sept.23. memphisjd@bellsouth.net

Yesterday I mentioned Elvis didn't rock after the Army. We know why. I forgot to add this note. Tom Parker didn't want Scotty Moore and Bill Black around. He left them small paychecks. On September 22,1957, they quit. Elvis was totally controlled by Parker. He kept Elvis making those sappy movies with awlful songs. Elvis didn't rock after the Army.
I appreciate all additions or corrections you post. Thank you everybody. May The Good lord Bless. JD

I posted this to groups.
I'm glad I got to see Marijohn Wilkin perform live in church. She
was a wonderful lady. A lovely lady.
I'm sorry more people didn't know. Kris Kristofferson sure did. JD
